How Burial Insurance Companies View Bipolar Disorder

There are no medical exams or physicals needed for burial insurance, but to get the best rates you will need to answer a few health questions.

What most companies will ask when it comes to any kind of mental health condition is something like…

“Have you been diagnosed with a mental incapacity?”

For most carriers, they do not consider bipolar a mental incapacity. That would be something like dementia.

So you can answer no to that health question and qualify for rock bottom rates!

Other Health Conditions

This article is about bipolar specifically, but many times people have more than one health condition, especially at older ages.

Companies will ask you other questions about your health to get a complete health profile.

If you have bipolar the odds are we can still get you low rates with no waiting period but this will depend on your other health conditions.

For example, if you have had a recent heart attack this might disqualify you from a carrier that would offer you coverage with just bipolar disorder.

When you talk with a Seniors Mutual agent we will go over all of your options to find the best carrier and rates for you based on your overall health and lifestyle.

Medications

Every insurance company will do a prescription check as part of the underwriting of your policy.

While medications for bipolar do not matter for those companies that accept bipolar, if you are trying to apply for coverage with a carrier that does care about bipolar, they could raise your rates or only offer a waiting period policy if you take certain medications.

Below are some of the common medications for bipolar that will come up on your prescription check. If you take one of these medications, you will probably be viewed as a bipolar insured, and will need to go with a company that does not care about bipolar whatsoever.

• Lithobid
• Depakene
• Depakote
• Tegretol
• Equetro
• Lamictal
• Olanzapine
• Risperidone
• Quetiapine
• Aripiprazole (Abilify)
• Ziprasidone
• Lurasidone
• Asenapine

Keep in mind you still qualify for burial insurance coverage at rock bottom rates as if you didn’t have bipolar disorder with quite a few companies, even if you take medication.
